What If?

Ch:7 A possible perfect day

We passed by a couple of cute cafes and I decided to stop at a ' Sara's Bakery '. As soon as I entered the bakery, my senses were filled with savoring, drool causing bakes.

I closed my eyes trying my best to take in all of the smells. The smell of vanilla and cinnamon caught my attention in between all of the amazing smells.

My eyes were blessed with a counter full of cakes, cupcakes and different kinds of breads.

Behind me someone coughed awkwardly taking me away from my moment living. I looked behind me to see Ed , who I forgot was there, and directly apologized while dragging him in with me.

His confused expression was instantly replaced with a goofy grin.

"I can see you're falling for me already querida." He said while rising our intertwined hands to show me what he meant.

I snatched my hand from his, stuck out my tongue out at him while rolling my eyes in the process, and continued towards the counter.

Sensing him walk and stand right behind me, I said, "Until now, today is a perfect day for me."
"Obviously." He said while wearing a 'duh' expression, "I'm in it. What else do you need?"
He added a cute laugh that I could listen to on repeat for the rest of my life.

"Ha-ha." I said unamused. "From where do you get that self confidence? I could surely use a gram or two of that myself."

Ed only gave me a smile and a side hug; the minute his arm left my right side, I yearned for his embrace.

But luckily the coldness that resulted with lack of his embrace, was replaced with the warmth of fresh buns directly from the oven.

We decided to buy two sugar coated buns and headed out.

"What about you?"I asked.
"What about me?" Eddie asked not catching on what I said.
"How would you describe the perfect day?"

"Oh that." He said passing a hand through his hair causing a few more loose strands to fall, leaving his hair in a messy state.

Shrugging his shoulders, he said,"Honestly I dont know. I wouldnt say I'm hard to please, but what I might consider as the perfect day one time might not be as perfect the other."

"What does it depend on then?" I asked accidentally brushing my hand against his, giving me light goosebumps.

"I don't know but I guess my mood that day firstly and secondly who I am with."
"So you would say today is a perfect day?" I stated not waiting for an answer and bumped into him playfully.

"How so?" He asked returning my bump with a bump.
"Your mood is good, I mean duh I'm by your side and two, my presence is enough to brighten anyone's day."
"And you say I'm too confident." He teased and bumps into me again.

Before I got a chance to say a witty comeback, a big truck passed by while speeding causing all the dust to arise. Next to me, Ed starts coughing and in between his coughs he whines, "Ouch. Help me Jules, please."

I turned around to see him rubbing his eye vigorously. I guessed a dust particle had entered his eye and ordered him to lower his hand and let me take care of it.

He lowered his hand only to place them around my waist, bringing me even closer to him.

I tried hard to ignore his smell transported me to another world, where the light citrus and earth combined took me way back to my childhood years. His smell reminded me by I love the winter and how much I love dancing in the rain.

He smelled like the first rain and the smell of the earth after its first shower; to some it may mean nothing, but to me it means that im home and home means I'm safe.

His breath that was fanning my face smelled of coffee and mint combined.

I tried my hardsest not to look him in the eyes, but it was impossible to do so when I had to fish out a tiny particle inside his eye.

I carefully opened his eye and slowly removed the intruder. I almost unconsciously kissed his eye, just like I was used to do to my nieces and young cousins.

Instead, I settled with passing my hand through his hair, causing the few particles of sand and dust to fly away.

When I saw him giving me a surprised look after my gesture, I quickly said while blushing and praying that he wouldnt see me,"You had a few particles in your hair."

"Thank you Jules."
"Anytime querida." I said trying to imitate him only to find him laughing at me.

"What's so funny?"
"For starters, how you said it." Ed said between laughs. "And secondly, querida is sweetheart in spanish for girls."

And eventhough embarrassment spilled on my face, I tried to sound confident and said,"Well who said I didn't already know that? Maybe I'm testing you or maybe I just find you looking closer to a girl."

With a smirk and a chuckle on my end, I continued,"I mean I can totally picture you in a tutu and two ponytails."

That earned me a chuckle and eye roll from Ed who decided not to debate with me on that one because he got that I wasn't tacking it back.

Only then did I notice how close we still were and tried to place some distance between us, only to find myself still trapped in his embrace.

When Ed finally realized he still had his hands around me, he quickly removed his hands and looked the other way, while trying to hide the light pink that had made it's way to his cheeks.

I smiled lightly, finding him very cute when he blushes.
A soft laugh also escaped my mouth and I said,"A pretty perfect day, if I say so myself."

Edward chuckled and we continued our trip to the park.
